So we revisited an area that knows all too well how powerful Mother Nature can be.

On New Years’ Eve 2010, an EF-3 tornado touched down in Cincinnati, Ark.

Four people lost their lives, and much of the area saw mass devastation.

The survivors who still live in Cincinnati say just being aware of the severe weather threat is very important.

“You’ll never know that feeling when you see total devastation and people crying and looking for other people. You’ll never understand that unless you’ve experienced it, and you’ll never be the same again,” Cincinnati resident Sharon Davis said.

She said the tornado that ripped through her town changed her outlook on things.

“I’ve never had a fear of tornadoes and storms until two years ago,” Davis said. “There’s not a storm that goes through that I don’t check the weather. My sleeping habits are much different. If there’s a storm coming, you don’t sleep as well as you used to.”

“When the electricity went off, I went out the back door, and I heard it coming. I just didn’t know where it was,” John Randolph, a Cincinnati firefighter, said.

He said their fire station was leveled by the tornado, but it’s since been rebuilt, and all of the supplies were donated.

That’s just one of many examples of how this tragedy brought the community together.

“We see each other in passing, but they needed more than that,” Randolph said.

Like many towns, there are no sirens to warn people in Cincinnati.

If the power goes out, your television will be of no use.

Weather radios and cellphones might be your only way of knowing when and where severe weather will hit.

The folks of Cincinnati said you need to have a plan in place, know where to go in the event of a tornado and be mindful of the fact that Mother Nature can be very powerful.

The Obama administration will unveil a major climate change plan Monday aimed at a large reduction in greenhouse gas emissions from the nation's coal-burning power plants, a senior administration official told CNN.
